I’m a fitness girl and lost 44 lbs – my stretch marks are my ‘beauty marks,’ they show hard work and dedication
A GYM girl went through a transformation after she lost 44 pounds and was even left with reminders of her hard work.
She showed off her stretch marks in appreciation of her own dedication.
Silvia (@silviaperezmer) shared her experience in a video with over 145,000 TikTok followers.
The influencer stood in a brown crop top and workout shorts as she talked about her health journey.
“Stretch marks after 20kg weight loss journey,” she said, pulling down her shorts to reveal the marks on her stomach and on her arms as Selena Gomez’s Who Says blared in the background.
“My beauty marks, they show my story, my hard work and dedication,” she added.
“I make this video for my younger self and for those who feel insecure about them. You are BEAUTIFUL,” she said, adding the hashtags #stretchmarks and #bodypositivity.
People took to the comments to shower the gym girl with praise.
“This made me feel so seen, thank you,” said one inspired commenter.
“Learning to love my stretch marks through my whole weight loss journey,” said another.
“Thanks for this. I am left with so many stretch marks after weight loss too and I feel uncomfortable sometimes but we’re all beautiful,” said a third.
“They tell your story!! You are beautiful,” Silvia replied.
“Thank you for showing what a real body can look like,” said a fourth.
